Super Simple Sustainable Living Tips:
Back to 'everything' weeks have got my brain spinning.... so I treated myself to a new notebook. I am a pen to paper kind of person, because muscle memory is real.
Instead of grabbing a notebook made from newly chopped trees whitened with bleach, a glossy cover with a nice sheen of un-recyclable plastic, and patterned with petroleum based inks (yeah I'm sorry to burst your bubble) opt for a sustainably produced version made from recycled materials, safer inks, and ability to be recycled or composted.
I like having a bigger one for planning out life, and a little one for my bag that I can jot down quick notes that I think of on the go. My brain is always running and putting it into my phone...well that is never to be seen again.
Also? Makes a quick and easy eco friendly gift.
Product Highlights:
"Get Chip Done" notepad made by Dear Hancock, its cute, I love a good pun, products all designed in Massachussets, printed on recyclable, FSC approved, green-e certified soft white eggshell paper stock. The 100% recycled kraft envelopes are sourced from a hydro-electric paper mill and printed in the USA.
Coffee Notes Notebooks: Notebooks made from various recycled sources, such as recycled coffee cup paper, fruit processing waste, recycled paper, textile manufacturing waste. Beautiful sets generally come with one lined, one dot grid and one blank notebook.
Pocket Notebooks from Cambridge Imprint are made with responsibility sourced paper, and print with hand mixed, vegetable oil based ink.
add in a Blackwing Pencil Set to make it extra special (and yes, not all pencils are made from responsible sourcing, and many have plastic paint on them or plastic wrapping).
